Kaffe


I found back my favourite sweater in the back of a closet. I made it sometime in the 90ies. It needs some repairing, but it's still my favourite.


Pattern: adapted from Kaffe Fasset: Glorious Knits. Yarn: Acrylic, wool, cotton, rayon, and blends. I bought skeins on sale, ripped thrifted sweaters etc. It was great fun and left me with a stash, I have still some of the yarns used for this sweater.

head and toe

Because everybody else was making them too:



done on 2 circulars, at once. Which actually posed some cognitive challenges.

Because I had made the yarn and it was hard to find the 'right' project for it:


no knitting challenges here. Just follow the pattern (from 'Knitting in the nordic tradition'). A little bit of anxiety at the end (will I have enough yarn???) but it worked out.
